Owens Corning price target raised to $192 from $175 at RBC Capital

RBC Capital raised the firm’s price target on Owens Corning to $192 from $175 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company’s Q1 results saw another strong margin result in Roofing, with incremental pricing gains in Roofing/Insulation driving further upside while more than offsetting ongoing Composites weakness, the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC adds that it continues to see strength supported by lean channel inventories and solid sell-through even as comps become more difficult.
